hardware...
A laptop and an inline-5 or inline-6 datalink adapter kit from flea-bay or obd2.com etc... is they way to go for cummins. In all the years I have been helping others, that is all I have ever used no matter what were doing to the engine.



As far as software to go with that hardware, 'Insite' is the way to go. Some1 can buy the insite from the red engine maker or it can be had in dark places on the interwebs for f$ree. It will do all the stuffs someone wants towards checking faults, clearing them, etc.. Also can calibrate the turbo, put in injector codes, Monitor most sensors live, checking things, testing things, recording data, etc. .. and if someone wants to get brave and get into all the engineering side of it like custom programming, copying the ecm program in and out of the engine, etc... then the 'Calterm' software is needed... and again, it can be had in dark places on the interwebs for f$ree.

This is not a software trading site, so sharing that stuffs publicly is not allowed... but what people do in PM messaging with each other, I really don't care unless someone complains.
